Windows 7: Is there a program that can tell me if any of my apps need java?

Honestly? I'm sick of dealing with it. I uninstalled Blackberry Desktop Manager (I don't even use it anymore because updating my phone is a pain), but I'm wondering how to tell if anything else needs java. Is there a program that will scan my computer and tell me what programs need Java? thanks.

I think the easiest way to tell if something needs Java is to simply try running the program or app. If it needs Java you'll get a prompt. For example, I use Opera as my browser. If I try to access the official US Time website at time<dot>gov I get this prompt. I uninstalled Java bout a year ago and I haven't missed it or needed it.

I'm not aware of any other software that can scan your computer to see if installed programs or apps need Java.
